Yeah... very nice!!
That aircraft ranks right up there as one of my (if not thee) all-time favorite WWII Navy a/c! I do believe that was the first a/c model that I ever build... no not AM's version shown here but, someone elses and it was sooooo long ago (1960??) that I don't even remember the scale of it.
It eventually went out of a second-floor bedroom window on fire and 'crashed' onto the paved driveway below but, I'll never forget it....

Great work on the dauntless, Shonen! The panel lines and the red/white bands on the rudder are great!!
